Outfielders

The starters on Opening Day will be the Upton brothers and Heyward. The Braves acquired Doumit in the offseason to serve as a backup outfielder and catcher, and Schafer is a valuable commodity with his speed.

One player who could be added to this group is Joey Terdoslavich. The 25-year-old made his MLB debut in 2013 and played 55 games with the club.

If Pastornicky struggles in his return, Terdoslavich would probably occupy the last bench spot.

He will need to heat up at the plate to grab a spot, as he has just one hit in eight at-bats this spring.

Look for Terdoslavich to be up and down with Atlanta in 2014. He's a bubble guy to make the Opening Day roster.

Starting Pitchers

The surprise omission on this list is Mike Minor, but don't panic, Braves fans.

While Minor will likely miss the entire spring training and start the season on the disabled list, he should be able to rejoin the team during the regular season's first week, as noted by MLB.com's Mark Bowman.

Obviously it is disappointing that Minor won't be available for spring training, but the news could be much worse.

The Braves could choose to go to a four-man rotation for the first week, and each pitcher would still be on regular rest.

I also believe Wood will be one of the pitchers in the rotation.

While some have plugged Wood into the bullpen to start the season, I have consistently believed that he will be a part of the rotation in 2014.

I will stand by that projection after the first week of spring training.
